DC Station Drops Newscast

It appears that starting this week, Tegna’s WUSA dropped their 7PM newscast in favor of Inside Edition.

This leaves the DC market with no 7PM local newscast. The Firm’s WTTG has a show that supposed journalists work on called “Like it or Not”, but it is clearly not a news show.

This week the WTTG 7PM show covered topics including ”Messages to the Messiah” and “Pet Prenups.”

7PM is a great slot for news, but the fact that no station in DC offers that up, is really sad.

WUSA was doing news but punted to syndicated programing starting this week.
